Life
Iacopo Barozzi era il figlio primogenito di [[Andrea Barozzi]], {{sfn | Borsari | 1964}} un ufficiale veneziano. A partire da [[Karl Hopf]] nel XIX secolo, diversi storici moderni ritenevano che la sua famiglia avesse governato l'isola dell'Egeo di [[Santorini]] in seguito alla [[Quarta Crociata]], il che significa che Iacopo era l'erede della sua signoria, ma questo è stato confutato nella seconda metà del XX secolo, when it was shown that Barozzi rule over Santorini can be documented only from the early 14th century on. {{sfn | Borsari | 1966 | pp = 35-37, 79}} {{sfn | Robbert | 1985 | p = 432}}
Iacopo's early career was as a colonial administrator for the Venetian Republic in the Aegean: in the early 1290s he served as rector of Chania in the Venetian colony of Crete, then as Bailo of Negroponte from August 1295 to 1297, and finally as Duke of Candia in Crete from 1301 to 1303.[2]
Several islands (including Santorini) had been reconquered from their Latin lords by the Byzantine Empire in the 1270s in the wake of Licario's campaigns, but the tide turned in the beginning of the 14th century. This was when various Latin leaders took opportunity to establish new dominions in the islands, often resulting in subsequent conflicts with the Sanudo family of the Duchy of Naxos.[3]
In 1301, the Duke of Naxos, William I Sanudo, who considered himself as the feudal overlord of the island, was preparing an expedition to recover Santorini. Its fate is unclear, but in a treaty concluded between Venice and the Byzantine emperor Andronikos II Palaiologos in 1302, Venetian possession of the island was recognized.[2] In it, Iacopo was styled dominator insularum Sancte Erini et Thyrasie, but recognized only Venice, not the Duke of Naxos, as his feudal suzerain. As a result, the latter seized Iacopo as he was passing through his domains at the end of his tenure as Duke of Candia. The Great Council of Venice promptly intervened and ordered Iacopo's release.[2] Iacopo retired to Candia, where he died in 1308.[2] Contrary to earlier scholarship, Iacopo was thus the first lord of Santorini from the Barozzi family.[1]
